as compared year to 2000 force when george w. bush won the state. you can see that president bush won more of this region than did john mccain in 2008. if you are president obama in your mitt romney, where would you focus your resources? >> you can tell by where they are visiting. romney spent a lot of time in the richmond area. some of these voted for president obama. others were very conservative. there is no way for a republican to win state ride and allow a county like chester fell to give 40 5% of the votes to obama. he needs to do well and those areas that i mentioned the prince william county would just become very diverse. as 1.4 million people. the blue areas are small. trees and rocks and acres do not vote. at least in most states and localities. >> what kind of voting systems are used in virginia? >> the computerized systems are used almost everywhere. we have eliminated paper ballots. we do not have these state anymore. my votes were cast on lever machines. we thought they were pretty neat. they are long gone. now you have a computerized

w. bush in eight years? and this president was handed the worst recession since the great depression. and we're coming out of it. and so we can't go back to those days. which is what romney/ryan would do, take us back. would take us back on health care. where being a woman was a preexisting condition. she had to pay twice as much for the same health insurance as a man. they want to criminalize a woman's right to choose. even in cases of rape and incest. that's in the republican platform. it's unbelievable. so i think when the president says, this election is about moving forward or going backwards, i think that sum it is up. and women as a rule, we look forward. >> you have more women candidates running now in terms of senate seats. do you expect that when this is all over there will be more women senators, even despite the retirement from the senate in maine, of olympia snowe, a republican? >> i do think so. and i called this the year of the woman about a year ago. i think that is going

george w. bush ran he was going to change the tone. everyone is always going to change the tone. the question is mitt romney promising by partisanship of it like lucy promising charlie brown she won't pull football? [laughter] >> yes, i think it is. i think that he has to nod to that there is no evidence he would govern in of bipartisan way to read george w. bush that is not elected president in my opinion but did not get a majority of the votes -- [applause] he ran that we as a compassionate conservative and you would have expected him to govern as a moderate and realize he presided over a very deeply divided country and instead he was one of the most radical presidents we've ever had, so i expect the same thing from mitt romney who is actually talked who is espousing more radical right policies than george w. bush ever did. like nixon and ronald reagan in certain ways looks like a moderate in terms of education mitt romney is very willing to slash all of that. >> romney brings up his massachusetts experience where he was in an overwhelmingly democratic state to show how he woul
